Mon Nov 24 201416:08Lane will have surgery on broken right leg and done for season
Lane will have surgery on his broken right leg and is done for the season, Roy Cummings of the Tampa Tribune reports.
With three carries for 58 yards and a TD along with one catch for three yards in nine games, Lane wasn't a fantasy factor, but as the Bucs' only true fullback, his blocking will be missed by the team.

Bucs head coach Lovie Smith said Lane suffered a "serious leg injury" during Sunday's loss to the Bears, and he could miss the rest of the season, ESPN.com reports.
Lane, the only fullback on the roster, had to be carted off the field after being fitted for an air cast. Backup tight end Luke Stocker took over as the fullback after Lane went down, and it's possible that he could stay in that role if the Bucs can't find a suitable replacement.

Lane left Sunday's game against the Bears with a right ankle injury and will not return.
This one didn't look good. The Buccaneers brought out the cart for Lane, whose leg was fitted in an air cast before he was taken off the field. A broken leg or ankle seems possible, leaving Tampa without a true fullback for the rest of this game.
Wed Oct 15 201411:09Lane suspended for two games for violating league's performance ...
Lane has been suspended for two games for violating the league's performance enhancing substances policy.
Lane's suspension will begin immediately, ruling him out until Week 10's game against the Falcons. However, considering Lane has just two carries on the season, his suspension should hardly impact fantasy owners.

Lane was shut out of the Buc's 56-14 loss to the Falcons on Thursday, as he received neither a carry or a target in the passing game.
Lane had a 54-yard carry in Tampa's first game of the season, but has followed that up with one catch for three yards between his last two outings.
Wed Sep 10 201420:22Lane recorded one carry for 54 yards in Sunday's loss to Panther...
Lane recorded one carry for 54 yards in Sunday's loss to the Panthers.
As the Bucs' starting fullback, Lane isn't likely to carve out a major fantasy impact this season, but he certainly made the most of his one touch in Week 1.
Tue Aug 27 201315:21Jorvorskie Lane cut by Dolphins
Dolphins waived FB Jorvorskie Lane.
Even with Dustin Keller (knee) out for the year and H-back Charles Clay moving into the starting tight end role, Lane can't stick. He's not a plus lead blocker.

Mon Jul 22 201316:13Jorvorskie Lane may lose his roster spot
Dolphins FB Jorvorskie Lane is practicing with the third-team offense at training camp and is in danger of losing his roster spot.
The Dolphins apparently decided during Jeff Ireland's pre-training camp vacation that they're going to be a three-receiver, one-tight end team that uses an extra tight end whenever it runs out of the I-formation. It's also why the Fins decided against signing free agent Vonta Leach. Lane struggled as a lead blocker in 2012 and does not offer pass-catching ability.

Sun Jul 21 201311:07Jorvorskie Lane struggled to keep job in OTAs
The Dolphins benched FB Jorvorskie Lane in favor of H-back Charles Clay at times during OTAs.
Lane is a useful short-yardage option and special teamer, but was maddeningly up and down as a lead blocker last season. It's surprising the Fins have ostensibly jumped out of the Vonta Leach sweepstakes. They made heavy use of I-formations and the offset I last year, particularly when Lamar Miller was in the backfield. We would have loved Leach's addition for Miller's fantasy outlook.
